The NBA season is finally back but with all the drama during the offseason, it feels like the season was never really over. There's been so much happening in the sports world lately, that the NBA probably needed a full media week to address all of the controversy, rumors and news surrounding the league.

So here’s my take – My Top 5 Highlights from NBA Media Day(s)

Steph Curry: Getting dis-invited to the White House via TWITTER after telling the media that he did NOT want to celebrate theGWS's championship with Mr.Trump. However the team will still make the trip to DC to celebrate with theCITY, thePEOPLE, just not thePRESIDENT. The Real Message: - [ Being anti-inequality does not = being anti-America, nor anti-Military – it simply means that we are trying to seek justice and only willing to accept equal rights for EVERYONE ]
Lebron vs Everybody:

After calling the president a bum via TWITTER Lebron headed into media day like a boss, letting everyone know he’s not here for whatever B.S. you’re selling.
Trump: Bron sure isn’t a fan of “that guy” and made sure the media heard his disapproval of not only the presidency but also the injustices that are still alive in america.
Kyrie: “The kid” he no longer has advice for…because he didn’t want to sit with the Cavs anymore
Free Agency: Don’t ask him about it until the summer of 2018 or your interview privileges will be revoked

Hoodie Melo: Will not, I repeat, WILL NOT be coming off the bench – does it look like he was left off the starting line-up?
DWade: Was semi recruited by Carmelo during his media interview [ but ] of course he went back with Lebron, I mean seems like a no-brainer: Cavs = Finals while OKC = Vacation in May:
Lonzo Ball: Sorry nothing here, just waiting for the hype to clear!
